This is the Map of Critical Biodiversity Areas and Ecological Support Areas (CBA Map) produced by the Limpopo Conservation Plan V2 (LCPv2, 2013), and updated consecutively and individually for the Waterberg (2015), Mopani (2016), Vhembe (2017), Sekhukhune (2018) and Capricorn (2018) district municipalities as part the compilation of bioregional plans for these municipalities. Each bioregional plan produced an updated CBA map for the district. The bioregional plan serves as the primary biodiversity informant to a range of planning and land-use authorisation processes, although it is important to recognise that the bioregional plan does not replace any planning and decision-making processes and does not grant, limit or remove land-use rights. EcosolGIS and NuLeaf Planning and Environmental (Pty) Ltd compiled the bioregional plans with support from the Limpopo Department of Economic Development, Environment and Tourism (LEDET), the South African National Biodiversity Institute (SANBI), and various stakeholders within each district. The provincial CBA map developed by the LCPv2 was updated for each district based on these inputs. During the consultation process, real and potential threats, updated information and non-alignment between the LCPv2 and the assessed aspects, as well as, the various instruments and informants were identified. A detailed description of the alignment process is contained in the respective Process and Consultation Reports. This product merges these five maps into a single CBA map for the province in order to harmonise the serving of spatial information and resolving edge matching between districts.
